Formatting pc drivers question

[Jacopot2]

Hi im formatting my pc cause i had some blue screen issues and after that im getting like on cs go from 350 fps to 70. i formatted it just a few times and i dont remember much. im saving my imprtant files on another external hdd, my questions are:

1) which drivers should i download to make it run perfectly? ill give you my specs under here (id like a full list of link to download if possible)

2) should i choose some other options when formatting. becouse i remember the last time i was getting a folder called windows.old and windows.old.old which were taking a lot of space


specs:
intel i7 6700k
Asus GeForce GTX 770
Asus Z170 ( ASUS - Motherboard Z170 PRO GAMING socket LGA 1151 chipset Z170 ATX)
8Gb Ram HyperXFury 2666mhz (8x1)
hdd (no idea but 500gb)
windows 7 home 64bit

tell me if you need to know anything else

If you do a clean install format the hdd. It'll remove those windows.old folders

Which Z170? There's an A, a Pro, a K, Deluxe. You have to make sure you get the right drivers for the right motherboard

You should install the chipset drivers after installing windows

Wont hurt to install the Management Engine Interface drivers from the site

If Windows doesnt install Audio, and LAN you'll have to install those from the site

And the USB 3 drivers if you're going to use USB 3

You can install PC diags under utils if you want. And front base driver whatever that is for Rog. Dont need anything else

And SATA drivers from the site

The drivers on cd if thats what you mean maybe out of date. The drivers on the ASUS site maybe more recent

So if it crashes, the drivers you installed maybe the cause. They're old.

You dont need the registration program. So you've installed the video and audio drivers. If windows installed lan drivers, that should be fine

Look in device manager. Anything here with a ? under it ? If not, then that should be it !

Dont forget the chipset drivers. If they're not on the cd (They maybe old) download then install them

ok thanks, but here where i can see like 3 things on chipset (for example) should i download only the one on top cuz they are the same just updated or they are all different and i should download everyone https://gyazo.com/88e5c51aa0992c6554ec38d70f5b77f3

Download the first one and the bottom one (the chipset drivers)

The middle one is just an older version of the 1st one. Dont worry about the middle one
